• Which the release of FS2020 we see an explosition of activity on the forun and of course we are very happy to see this. But having all questions about FS2020 in one forum becomes a bit messy. So therefore we would like to ask you all to use the following guidelines when posting your questions:

    • Tag FS2020 specific questions with the MSFS2020 tag.
    • Questions about making 3D assets can be posted in the 3D asset design forum. Either post them in the subforum of the modelling tool you use or in the general forum if they are general.
    • Questions about aircraft design can be posted in the Aircraft design forum
    • Questions about airport design can be posted in the FS2020 airport design forum. Once airport development tools have been updated for FS2020 you can post tool speciifc questions in the subforums of those tools as well of course.
    • Questions about terrain design can be posted in the FS2020 terrain design forum.
    • Questions about SimConnect can be posted in the SimConnect forum.

    Any other question that is not specific to an aspect of development or tool can be posted in the General chat forum.

    By following these guidelines we make sure that the forums remain easy to read for everybody and also that the right people can find your post to answer it.

WIN 7 64bit Problem to install SDK on remote computer

Hello everybody,

I am preparing a SimConnect master slave installation.
The previous installation worked quite good with Master Vista 32 bit / Slave XP 32bit

Now I have a new slave with Win7 64 bit.
SDK installation Sp1a and SP2 on slave was with no problems.
On the slave FSX is not instaled.

The files on master:

C:\Users[username]\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\FSX
C:\Users\[username]\Documents\Flight Simulator X Files
C:\Microsoft Games\Microsoft Flight Simulator X (your FSX folder)

are fully accessible from slave ( I can open, change and store a txt file in the above folders from slave)

When I run the ConfigSDK.exe I get the error report:
“Cannot find Microsoft Flight Simulator X installation path.
Microsoft Flight Simulator X must be installed, and must have been run at least once.”

I had no problem when I run the ConfigSDK.exe under XP. Now with Win7 64bit it does not work.

I presume that this has something to do with Win7 64bit.

Has anybody an idea what I could do?

Many thanks in advance for your help.


Stefan
 
Sorry for bothering you,

I solved the problem.
I have run the wrong setup programm.
Instead of running ConfigSDK.exe I must execute
SDK\Core Utilities Kit\SimConnect SDK\lib\SimConnect.msi

After running this msi the Simmconect is possible.

Sorry again

Stefan
